Yes, there are. Wilson, et al, 1994, for one. Sweetoe and Redell, 1970s. Grose, et al. 1994 It is also discussed in Brian Moore's books and chapter by Levitt and Voroba in 1980, Audiology book by Roeser, et al. and probably in the Katz text. I know pure tone and possibly speech MLDs have been done in conductive hearing loss also. Good luck! Helen Helen J.

I've seen several papers that have measured MLDs for PURE TONES in the NmSm (noise and signal monaural) versus NuSm (Uncorrelated noise presented bilaterally and signal monaural) condition. We generally see no MLD in these conditions. Does anyone know of papers that have looked at this condition using SPEECH as the signal? Specifically, I'm looking for MLD papers that have measured both monaural speech in an ipsilateral noise and monaural speech in a dichotic noise. Any leads are greatly appreciated.
